Before fitting
Check the exact model and size with your healthcare professional before fitting. Keep the product and its supplied fasteners ready. The required joint position and wearing schedule are individual treatment decisions.
Initial shaping and positioning should follow the treating professional’s instructions. Use this page to understand the demonstration and to review the steps you have been taught.
Fitting sequence
- On a flat surface, place the forearm into the orthosis from the radial side, the side of the thumb.
- Adjust the orthosis to the hand and wrist while keeping the position prescribed for your treatment.
- Fasten the supplied straps and check that the wrist position is maintained during fastening.
Check the fit
After fastening, check that the orthosis remains in the prescribed position and that straps or edges do not cause undue pressure or rubbing. Ask your healthcare professional to review an uncomfortable or changed fit rather than repeatedly bending the product.
